For winter SemeSter 2009/10)
the area of telecommunications is
growing steadily. Besides the high
level technical and mathematical qualifications
needed by engineers and computer
scientists with technical responsibility
in projects, tasks and companies,
management qualities are needed more
than ever to successfully supervise interdisciplinary
projects today. In addition
to specialised knowledge of telecommunications
engineering, in particular
basic knowledge of information systems,
the telecommunications industry and
telecommunications network providers
require knowledge of information
systems. On the other hand, the fields
of industrial electronic measurement and
data transmission technology, as well as
high speed connection technology and
radio engineering, expect engineers to
possess circuit technology knowledge of
analog and digital systems architecture,
sub-systems and components. In addition
to this, telecommunications systems
used in companies must always provide
users with the information they need
on demand. To ensure this, very broad
knowledge of information processing,
the architecture of mobile information
systems and semantic networks is absolutely
necessary.
These requirements of the telecommunications
branch are addressed in
the Telecommunications Masters Degree
Programme: It offers an education which is
both deep scientifically and broad in engineering
terms and therefore guarantees
the necessary qualifications at a high level.
Within the curriculum, which is designed
especially to meet the needs of the
telecommunications industry, knowledge
of basic radio engineering and information
technology are provided upon a foundation
of the core areas of telecommunications
technology. In particular, the students
obtain comprehensive knowledge in the
areas of analog and digital circuit technology,
radio transmission technology and
information retrieval and the development
of telecommunications systems. The study
plan allows the students to create an individual
profile according to their personal
aptitudes and skills.
The mostly research-oriented scientific
education provides graduates with a foundation
which especially qualifies them to
work in the area of product development.
It qualifies them for independent, handson
work on difficult and out-of-the-ordinary
technical projects. Through this newly
conceived course of study, students have
the possibility to prepare themselves for
newly structured, up-and-coming fields
within the area of telecommunications
technology, which is characterised by
a rapidly growing computer science, as
well as telecommunications engineering,
component.
